I AGREE

Nintendo must add villlains. They should get back. I can't get stuck with koopas vilains a lot.
Because they definitely did not just add 7 "villains" to the game.
Yes, they added 7 new koopa models.

Honesty how the sorcery was set up wasn't good at all IMO. I didn't like the part where they introduced the Super Horn and Crazy 8 Mario Kart though the Ages. The trailer was fucktastick, but Gold Pink Peach, the Rainbow Road and the roster is a bit disappointing. I really like Baby Rosalina (she's so fucking cute!!), but I miss Diddy and Dry Bones. Adding the Koopalings was meh, I didn't care about them. The Rainbow Road though looked a bit disappointing. It still looks good, but when the producers said it was "spectacular" I excepted to be the best Rainbow Road ever! Gold Pink Peach is probably the worst character they could add in the roster. Even Queen Bee fits better than her. The Battle Mode looks pretty awesome, even though I was excepting Shine Runners and the mission mode from MKDS. Overall I'm hyped for the game, but the direct wasn't good set up, even though I liked the info and the trailer.
EDIT: Oh I forgot to say that I just love the soundtrack.

For some reason, when I looked at the trailer it looks fabulous because of its high quality graphics, new gimmicks and such. But when I watch others playing the game, it doesn't look as appealing as it should be in the trailer.

LitDude, I have no idea what you're implying by that post. What's wrong with 2 Wii retro courses? What's wrong with Bowser's Castle levels in Retro Cups?

Granted, the trailer is for watching, and the game is for playing. It seems strange to compare a secondhand gaming experience to a trailer in the first place.

Yeah, the trailers are pretty likely to bit a tad more spectacular than the real game. I mean spectacular literally; it's going to be flashy and show the most action-packed moments of races. That's not to say the game won't be great, it probably will be. But the trailer will always be slightly more exciting.

I've watched Gamexplain's showcases of the different tracks and I can't agree with HealthyMario. The game does seem to be lots of fun.
